Notes
* Data Capacity and Speed figures above are for uncompressed data. Most manufacturers list compressed capacities on their marketing material. Capacities are often stated on tapes as double the actual value; they assume that data will be compressed with a 2:1 ratio (IBM uses a 3:1 compression ratio in the documentation for its Mainframe tape drives. Sony uses a 2.6:1 ratio for SAIT). See LTO-DC below. The marketing material also uses decimal definitions for byte capacities.
* The units for data capacity generally follow the (decimal) SI prefix convention. (eg. mega = 10^6)
* The units for data transfer generally follow the binary prefix convention. (eg. mega = 2^20)
* Minimum and maximum reading and writing speeds are drive dependent.
Positioning times
While specifications vary somewhat between different drives, a typical LTO-3 drive will have a maximum rewind time of about 80 seconds and an average access time (from beginning of tape) of about 50 seconds[17].[dead link] Note that due to the serpentine writing, rewinding often takes less time than the maximum. If a tape is written to full capacity, there is no rewind time, since the last pass is a reverse pass leaving the head at the beginning of the tape.
Tape durability
* 15 to 30 years archival.
* 5000 cartridge loads/unloads
* Approximately 260 full file passes. (One file pass is equal to writing enough data to fill an entire tape.)
